Current team at Oregon State University
Jamie is the lab PI who tries to keep the lab funded, operational, and fun!
Research Technician/Lab Manager who joined the lab to learn about all things immunotoxicology. Elena has a wealth of cell-based and experimental model experience and is working to support myriad research efforts in the lab.
Technical Assistant who also joined the lab to learn about all things immuntoxicity. Amanda is working to become a full-fledged toxicologist and is the anchor that keeps the lab happy, organized, and fed!
Doctoral student who is focused on the effects of PFAS exposure on B cell development. Macon will be our flow cytometer expert as she dives into the deep waters of B cells!
Doctoral student who will be describing the immunotoxicity of complex long-chain chlorinated PFAS that have not yet been well-studied.
Undergraduate students in the lab:
Kolette Miller, undergraduate student who is working on developing a method for measuring natural killer cell cytotoxicity from natural killer cells found in blood.
Nick Sousou, undergraduate student who is in charge of various enzymatic assays to understand how different PFAS affect the activity of a specific enzyme.
Laila Major, undergraduate honors student who is working on macrophage infiltration in skin samples that were treated with a PFAS.
Olivia Booker, undergraduate student who is working on PPAR-alpha expression to understand how understudied PFAS affect expression of this transcription factor.
Ella Lactu, undergraduate student who is working on B cell in vitro methods.
